It's just a bit of a joke to be a Mass Effect fan now

Like being a StarWars fan after the prequels, except that you don't even have the original series as a fall back.
That is why I think this is hitting some people so hard. It's not just a game, it's a little bit of yourself that should have been great fun to share with others, now isn't.

Yup. I was going to get my brother to play it (he is finishing his masters and has been too busy) but now I won't bother. Kind of sad. Sharing our interest in sci-fi is pretty much the biggest thing we bond over.

ME3 is a great game and the perfect ending to the trilogy. Did I want a bit more of an ending... sure, but my opinion of the game is not diminished because a bunch of immature people start ranting about not getting their way.
Be a Mass Effect fan if you enjoyed the games and be proud of it. It was a great series and one that I will be replaying over again many times in the years ahead. Stop letting other people make your opinions for you. Its actually okay to like something that everyone else doesn't. Trust me, the very vocal minority that are outraged at the game doesn't reflect the number of people that like the game.

Yup. A friend asked me what I had done the past week and I responded "played the new Mass Effect" and he responded "Oh, the game with all those whiny fans?".
Haha...

And here are my reasons.
BioWare told us MP has no bearing on SP success - outright lie
BioWare (Casey Hudson) told us we wouldn't A,B,C endings - outright lie
BioWare told us that by the end of the game we would see how our hard work and decisions would effect the story - outright lie
BioWare told us that DLC would only require a one time verification - outright lie
BioWare told us that once we paid for MP items we keep them - they disappear and they don't refund your money (outright lie)
BioWare told us (and is continuing to tell us) that the Day 1 DLC is not on the disk - outright lie
I'm sorry but there comes a time when consumers need to stand up and take action. We have complained about being lied to in the past... look where that got us... nowhere.
The video game industry is headed down a very dark path right now, and by the looks of it that won't change unless more and more of us take a stand and refuse to be lied to anymore, refuse to be forced to pay extra for a full game, refuse to take horrid DRMs that do nothing to stop what they are meant to stop and only abuse us paying customers.
I'm tired of just shouting in the wind myself. So I am doing something about it, starting today.

I think some of you people got overhyped by Biowares promises. I never did, not after ME2. I was a realist, I knew they wouldnt deliver what they promised, most of it was marketing PR BS. So I wasnt expecting too much...

I dunno, I still love the Mass Effect universe. And yet I feel hurt and taken advantage of by BioWare/EA. To the point that I also logged an FTC complaint against them... both.

i love ME3. ive already logged over 100 hours in it, and will probably log another 100, which will keep me busy until GW2 comes out. the campaign has a lot of replay value, and multiplayer is a lot of fun.
oh, and i bought the DLC. and will probably buy the subsequent DLC's. i didnt buy into any of the "promises" because i wasnt following ME3 development. maybe this is why so many of you are butthurt - you believed their promises and raised your expectations too high. i just bought the game, and thought it was well worth the money.

I don't think you understand what the concepts of "product", "deceptive marketing" and "consumer rights" mean.

My thoughts as well. It was far too ambiguous and just wasn't satisfying. The scene after the credits just made things more confusing.Armass81 wrote...
I like Mass Effect, I dont even mind the current endings so much, tough there are things that could have been handled and explained better like the space magic.
